能用简单直观的方式把问题说对,或者可以说服读者,这种历史书应当得到重视,因为“简单”的同时意味着高度的浓缩和概括。复杂而汗牛充栋的历史书固然形制严瑾而科学,但在读过这本“简史”(此处指《你一定爱读的极简欧洲史》)之后,欧洲的历史特别是那些没有确证史料留存下来的时期才在我们面前豁然开朗,直观的图形、箭头和表格展现出对历史的有效梳理。 The problem can be said in a straightforward and intuitive way, or the reader can be persuaded that such a history book deserves attention because “simple” implies a high degree of concentration and generalization. Complicating and sweeping history books are, of course, strict and scientific, but after reading the short history of Europe (in this case, “the minimalist European history that you must love to read”), the history of Europe, especially those without a corroboration The period when the historical data survived was clear to us. Intuitive graphics, arrows and tables showed an effective combing of history.
